===[NEW] Spell Workshop [NEW]===

[Amargaard]

Yay, Kyo's gonna take my request ^^

And those won't be needed, as there are no destructibles and walls in the map project of mine, so yeah only pathing blockers should block it :b
Will you return to the social group roleplay too, good sir?

 

[Amargaard]

And yeah, I think I'll just stick to slow effects, since it's just an ordinary ability - not an ultimate or anything

You bore her? I can hardly believe that
Besides, the good side is always open for friendly souls, you know

 

[TaShadan]

I request a Spell:
Steal Resources:
A unit with this Spell is able to cast on an enemy building. While the caster is channeling gold and/or lumber is transfered from the enemy player to the owner of the caster.

 

[Imadori]

@Amargaard - Friendly souls eh~ What I know is Bern-chan is always in the dark side, she will kill me if I betray her. T^T

Here it is! I didn't create additional Variables except Temporaries to reduce the number of variables in your map.
And I guess you will use it only on a single ability so there is no need for that.
Tell me if there is a problem my peon buddy!

Next is MasterTrainer and TaShadan's.

 

[Binsu]

Hey, just wanna request a spell, a Passive spell. Here is the description... wish it's possible to make:

Name: Deep Wound

Description: I am to use this spell on my Heroes Tale project map on a Boss, Furbolg.

Spell Description: Each attack of the Furbolg makes him stronger that increase his damage by 5 each attack he made. Stacks 5 times but if in 3 seconds, he didnt attack, 1 stack will deplete thus decreasing his damage by 5. (More better when the Deep wound is in stack make his left and right hands have the Special effect of a Enrage.... Red hands!)


That's for my request. Hope someone might have the time to do it for I am not expert at this type...

This can easily be done with 1 buff system. I know two good ones but they are a bit heavy, but they also might be useful for your future spells. If that's OK, I can make this based on one of those libraries.

What do you mean by one of those Libraries.... BTW, thanks for dedicating on making it.

 

[Dr.Killer]

Well I think providing a test map will be better than an explanation, eh?
I'll post it as soon as possible.

Ok, I'll be waiting for it. Gave you +REP for the hardwork.

 

[Amargaard]

Kyosuke, man, this is awzum. Thanks a lot, I'll make sure to list you in the credits and give you some rep ^^

 

[Dr.Killer]

Ok, I'll be waiting for it. Gave you +REP for the hardwork.

Thanks.
Spell code is almost finished. Now I'm dealing with some strange bugs which remove the bonus damages prematurely. I'll probably post your spell within 3 hours.

EDIT:
Here you go. And one thing, I don't know why but I can't get the engine to attach Bloodlust effect to both hands, it only attaches it to Furbolg's
left hand. Please take a look and inform me if there are any problems.

Hey, how do I copy it in to my map because I cant seem to understand on how you did the trigger... looks like JASS.

 

[Dr.Killer]

Hey, how do I copy it in to my map because I cant seem to understand on how you did the trigger... looks like JASS.

Sorry for answering so late:
1- Create a new trigger and name it Deep Wounds
2- Go to Edit-> Convert to Custom Text
3- Delete everything here
4- Copy ALL lines of my trigger and paste them to your newly made trigger
* Repeat these steps for triggers AutoIndex and TimerUtils
5- Copy and paste Deep Wounds and Damage Bonus abilities to your map (ctrl+c and ctrl+v work in the object editor)
6- Enjoy!

And of course it is Jass! Do I look like a GUI er?!

 

[Amargaard]

Hey smart guys, I have a question for you
If I want to make an ability like "Robo-goblin" (Normal Tinker hero's ulti), where all of the heroes' spells are changed to new ones when switching back and forth - can I do that in the editor, or do I need a custom spell for that?

Oh and I also seem to have a problem with importing the spells - as I have never tried that before :l

I don't understand...

In the editor ?
A custom spell is done in the editor anyway.

 

[Amargaard]

Well, I mean is GUI or JASS or whatever needed to create such a spell, or can an ordinary guy like me, make it with some simple triggers? :b

well to sort of answer your first question u can add spells but, i couldn't take out them. to add them though go to your hero when pressing F6 for object editor then go to the hero where its going to transform into and at the top u see the first three lines and the second one is your main ability u probably know that but the line after it u can add abilities there. Yeah sorry can't answer how to take out IDK.

to import spells the easiest way u first in your editor go to file ---> preferences...---> u will be in a tab that says general well look near the bottom and see a box to check where it says.. Automatically create unknown variables when pasting trigger data... check that box then click OK and save then all maps u edit in the future when importing trigger it would be done for u.

Yep hopefully its easy to follow if not i created a step by step picture thing. the first one is your first question
the next three are for importing but, flip the 3rd and 4th picture for the correct steps

Yeah sorry can't answer how to take out IDK.

I know all that - the problem is that I want his normal hero abilities to disappear, and new hero abilities to appear, whenever he switches back and forth between the two forms ^^

Oh, alright, I checked that box, but that is not my problem. The problem is that when I try to import triggers, this warning appears, saying that of my old triggers will be deleted when importing - and I'm not going to remake all of my triggers for one spell, that's for sure! :l

Screenshot incoming!

 

[Legion_King]

You should copy paste the initializations of each trigger manually. Don't use the import trigger one.

 

[Amargaard]

There are like 3+ triggers, so I have to open and closing one map after another three times in a row, or is there a faster way?

 

[Legion_King]

Up on the toolbar there is Window, from which you can change the map and is a bit faster.

 

[BunnyAng]

I know what Amargaard is talking about. He meant a hero that has different skillsets once he transform. Like replacing all the skills of the Demon Hunter once he activates Metamorphosis. Hope that helps with the misunderstanding.

 

[Amargaard]

Yeah, that's what I tried to say :b
Is that possible to make?

 

[MasterTrainer]

Yeah, that's what I tried to say :b
Is that possible to make?

Yeah sure- like in the Demon Hunter case:
just change the abilities of the morphed unit into the abilities the origin unit does not have/ or what you want the morphed unit to have. I think it can be done in the Object Editor.

That's what I'd do if faced with your situation

 

[Amargaard]

The thing is - I want the spell to be based on Robo-goblin, because the hero should be able to transform freely between his two forms, without cooldowns and time limits.
But it doesn't work out. I can remove old hero abilities and add new ones to the alternate form unit, but no matter what, the original units' hero abilites remains when switching back and forth :l

well for the first part u can do that for metamorphosis.
for the cooldown put 0 and the time to stay transform put 0 then the mana cost 0. then u can transform between forms at the cost of no mana.

Yeah about the second part can't help then IDK :c

 

[BunnyAng]

Yeah, that's what I tried to say :b

It is possible. I saw someone had that something like that before. It was in FOC where Goku had different skills after his transformation or Troll Warlord in DotA where his whirling axes skills are changed when he switched to melee-ranged form. His spellpack exists here on Hive in the spells section but i is still pending because it lacks documentation. It is in vJASS, though.

I think now the second part should be done with triggers- remove and add the old/new abilities every time the spell is cast; using a boolean to know if the caster is transformed or not.

 

[Vladadamm]

Use a dummy ability which does nothing. Do a simple trigger that add the goblin's ability to the hero (in a disabled spell book ofc) and remove the dummy ability to replace it with another dummy ability. When this other dummy ability is used, remove the spell book with the goblin's ability and switch the two dummy spells again.

 

[sammath]

Question:
Who can I replace the patrol button from a unit, with any skill?

 

[Imadori]

Forgive me guys, internet problem. T^T
But, I've manage to complete 3 of the requests!

@Amargaard - Don't you want to use 2 Heroes instead? I will try doing it for yah buddy!

Hey MasterTrainer! TaShadan & Hell_Master (Just in case you still want it to be in GUI), here!

 

[TaShadan]

thx. Tried it and it works perfect on your demomap Hope i can implement it into my mod without problems.

 

[BunnyAng]

Hey guys mind if i request a simple spell? I may say i's simple but i can't do it . It's a Phase Shift spell that creates a Statue Keeper doodad in the way while he's disappeared. Once he deactivates the Phase Shift the Statue Keeper disappears. Lasts 1 / 2 / 3 seconds or until deactivated. I'll configure the cd and manacost myself. Thanks in advance.

 

[Vinz]

gumx Here's the spell. Tell me if you want anything changed since the effects are not amusing at all..

 

[MasterTrainer]

Is there a limit to how many times a single user can request a spell(s)?

 

[Vinz]

Yes, up to 5 (?) spells per request.

Basically my charector.(I'm usin meh iPad so forgot the name) summons 8 ice pillars in a 500 AoE around him.(this spell should work like war stomp btw) when the ice pillars are fully summoned( 2-3 second casting time) they should start to move towards the player at about a peasants speed(like I said I'm on an iPad. Don't know the speed. When they reach the player. A huge frost nova explodes dealing 3*(spell level*75)+casters attack damage
Levels: 5

Additional Information

[Vinz]

It would be complicated to have attack damage as a real, maybe just use an attribute related to the spell.

E: @gumx,
